Chimney Supports

If chimney supports are required, they are installed the same as elbows. Nail chimney support straps to adja- cent structural framing, as shown on Figure 16. Bend straps as necessary and make sure they are secure so they will support the weight of the chimney. A chimney support is 2¹⁄" (64mm) long when installed. Consider this dimension when determining how many straight chimney sections are needed.

NOTE: Chimney supports are generally used in long

runs in a chase installation.

Additional Ceilings

If you encounter additional ceilings, repeat same steps required for first ceiling installation. See firestop illustra- tion in Figure 17.

Penetrating the Roof

Run pipe to roofline. Since chimney system must be vented to the out-of-doors, you must use an approved CFM Corporation termination.

If a chase is used, refer to the installation manual pro- vided with the termination cap.

Locate Chimney Centerpoint on Roof

Use same procedure detailed in locating center point of the flue system.

Drive a nail up through roof at the center point. This will

determine center point on outside of the roof.

Cut and Frame Roof Hole

Size of roof hole varies with the type of chimney ter- mination installed. Refer to installation instructions provided with CFM Corporation chimney termination to find correct size of roof hole.
